Human Legs are so 20th

2008-10-10T18:08:00.002-05:00

yeah in 50 years people who don't get the legs replaced with cheetah blades and chips in their heads will be laughed at like I laugh at the Vegans let alone the amish

in 50 years the paralympics will be a bigger draw the the boring olympics, athletes will move to it, right now a great athlete can't take steriods but if they swap out there legs for some cheetah blades then there's a whole international organization ready to let them in, cheer them on and stick em on a cereal box.

its only gonna get cooler

One organism's trash is another one's treasure

2008-10-10T18:01:00.002-05:00

like I've been saying all along. Our toxic materials is another organism minerals and vitamins. So keep polluting and one day life will evolve to eat plastic and waste till they will have to buy plastic supplements at the GNC

Newly evolved "superworms" that feast on toxic waste could help cleanse polluted industrial land, a new study says.

This a pretty cool site to drop ideas that are probably to big to just do on you own, you might get ripped off but you can toss up any idea and maybe win 10 grand to start it. Here are mine

a better border

2008-04-24T17:16:00.002-05:00

Seismology

You plant seismic probes all over the desert border area which are tuned into the bipeds and vans

You create an underground radar network. There would be no false positive as not much bigger than 140 pound roams the desert. Any seismic action would be from people and trucks crossing the desert.

SA900 Seismic Sensor
"The Seismic Probe detects micro vibrations in the 10 HZ range, which
makes it particularly sensitive to footsteps."

This would also alert authorities to tunnels being built under the border as well.

Internal biometrics

2007-07-23T16:53:00.000-05:00

There are two levels of Biometrics, Internal and External.

Currently only External Biometrics are being used, things like finger prints and iris scans. These systems rely on the surface of the body and can be faked.

Internal Biometrics would by exponentially harder to fake.

The best and most reliable Internal Biometric System is Skull Fissure Lines.

These Fissure lines are unique per person and could be scanned by several systems including High resolution sound waves, laser or X-ray.

The technology to scan this is here, but the ability to fake this is decades away if not impossible.

Internal biometrics is the closest thing to living encryption possible

hey look its already here!

sure you can put your computer in the living room and even look over your kids shoulder as he IMs and text messages, but can you translate all the "tween type"?

with some easy redesign of corporate oversight software you can track your kids IM sessions, add a keylogger and keyword recognition with monthly dictionary updates the program can alert you to when you kid is talking dirty even if it looks like he's just banging on the keyboard.

OMG KSJN HRUHGEW DJD E8IF

you don't know what it means but the program does, and if you pay for premium service the program will send you e-mail or txt message alerts live as your kid is typing, with java applets to your cell phone, you can watch the im session in realtime.

If its real bad and becomes dangerous you can tell the program to shut down the internet or even send the im logs and ip info to the central server where is will be saved, and usernames or ip addresses that pop up often can be flagged from future im sessions, depending on your settings

such info can be auto-forwarded to the FBI if they want it.

keep the kids safe eh

i just saved the third world or feces is a renewable resource

2007-03-17T07:39:00.001-05:00

Given:
In a BBC News Online article by Jane Black the following facts were stated:
More than 80% of people in the world have never heard a dial tone, let alone sent an email or downloaded information from the World Wide Web.

Even if its margin of error is 20 points here is how we fix it:

The grid is a industrial revolution concept where all basic utilities (electric, water, sewage) come from centralized monopolies, concentrating money and power to the state or corporation with huge start-up costs.

If huge swaths of the population are off-grid we make Micro-Grids

Identify a 3rd world slum with no electric, sewage, water treatment, where feces and trash fills the streets
Install a Methane Plant Electric Generator (MPEG)
Have people fill it with their waste
Use the MPEG to power a water pump and treatment facility
Use the MPEG to power a cellphone tower, Sell license
Use license money to provide micro-lending
Micro-lending will allow people to start distance learning, ebay their crafts, buy more cows, hire doctors, anything really
people can have homes wired directly to it or they can rent fully charged car batteries and exchange them as they need to

These small MPEGs can power a village pump to bring clean water from local sources. This alone will free up hundreds of work hours a week from the women of the village, who can then use their time for education and craftwork and generate money.

As the MPEG produces power, it generates this by cleaning up the village, creating a Micro-sewage system where all waste is brought to a centralized location: The MPEG.

the MPEG will also power a cell tower and a broadband satellite which will provide huge leaps of communication and technology, providing distance learning, distance medical attention.

Most importantly the MPEG will power refrigeration units. These are important as they can store vaccines. Space can be rented to local farmers/butchers/ etc. to preserve their product

Crap is a renewable resource.

Will IKEA become the next RIAA?

2007-03-01T17:33:00.000-05:00

With 3d printers coming becoming household friendly in the next 20-30 years which will use plastic or metal materials and possibly more, the "design premium" on common goods be dead.

People will just download cool CAD specs of cups, vases, etc. and render them at home. Legally on not, 3D design will be only a series of 101010101 to be bought, or hacked and torrented.

Will a man in a van come to your home with a muli-material 3D printer (for the poor of course, the rich will have there own in-home store) and render what you need?

when you're done with your new toy you can recycle it yourself

Will some 12 kid in guam on a hand-cranked laptop be your favorite designer?

3D-blogging? People will be able to post vase designs based on how there feeling that day.

bobble heads or pez dispensers that are moulded after your 80 Auntie?

Will these 3D printers be the Amazon killers? Fed-Ex, UPS even cardboardbox companies will suffer major losses if these devices go mainstream.

Will "Over-Choice" become a major problem? How long will spend online choosing your daily coffee cup with the most current pop-culture reference? Will you hire a service to make your choices easier based on your profile? or will your printer make design choices for you.

how will this affect the 3rd world manufacturing

The economics of this are the biggest problem but, that can be balanced with against shipping costs, scale, labor, oil, pollution

Plummeting prices

Now Adrian Bowyer hopes to change that by making the first 3D printer capable of fabricating copies of itself, as well as a wealth of everyday objects. He reasons that prices would plummet to around $500 if every machine was capable of building hundreds more at no cost beyond that of the raw materials.

A MILLION LITTLE BROTHERS community watch 2.0

2007-02-07T18:46:00.000-05:00

Nobody wants a police state of hundreds of cop cameras all over the urban landscape.

but hundreds of people who want to protect their own block will do it for them.

In Urban enviroments with ubiqitous wireless networks, coupled with welfare internet rates to deal with digital divides, big brother is out of a job.

when all you need is a $10 web cam pointed on the street, with the datastream being saved online no corner will be safe.

The Gov't won't even have to deal with it, it will be all volunteer based, people with the cameras will monitor them and can even quietly register their locale with the police so when a shooting happens outside the police can access the proper web cam archive.

It creates a no-snitching situation.

the images will testify for themselves, the citizens who host the cameras will never have to enter a court or make them selves known in the real world. this will add to the criminal's paranoia as there will be no one to coerce after the fact.

even wireless cameras that create their own IP address can be placed freely and randomly throughout the city.

Lunch Money is stupid

2007-02-07T17:43:00.000-05:00

Can you believe that "helicopter parents" give their kids cash to by cheeseburgers at the school cafeteria? its stupid.

I want to give my kid a debit card that i can refill over the internet, I expect that card to be good at all the vending machines and cafeteria and even surrounding eateries. I expect to be able to go on the web and track how many chili fries my fat bastard ate in a day, and a nutritional breakdown of said chili fry consumption.

I expect nutritional marketers (coke, pepsi and crisco) to pay for all of this for the liberty to track millions of fat teenagers eating habits. I then expect them to reward my little bobby hill points for healthy eating.

and because were talking about the future, I want the kids to stick the cards into excercise equipment and track their workout habits.

the card should also grant them internet access and i want to look at that.

Why can't my watch talk to my phone?

I want a minibrick sized qwerty keyborded prime console. I want to keep that in my Man Bag. I expect that minibrick to have a bluetooth earpiece, and I want a bluetooth watch that displays whose calling, weather, calender events with alarm, stock price alarm, and other "at-a-glance" info bursts. I expect the watch to be assorized with, bands, faceplates, skins, etc. The Minibrick only sees the light for the web and typing, the service provider should give me web based applications like google documents.

This can be done right now, will sombody just do it allready
